INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF VESPA ORIENTALIS IN HONEYBEE COLONIES AT ELSHARKIA GOVERNORATE

Abstract

: This study was carried out in the experimental apiary of the Plant Protection Research Institute of the Sharkia branch, which was carried out during the period of 2015-2018. In this study, the results obtained as when compared with food attract of workers (honey bee solution) record highest captured efficiency of 66.5 insect / trap / week, and the tuna recorded 36insect. Paste of Pollen substitutes the highest hunting efficiency of the queens was 80 insect / trap and tuna recorded 16.3.Application of three different methods of control (suspension of traps + regular feeding + narrowing the hive entrance)the hive entrance was narrow using gypsum, a total loss of the proportion of hives as a result of the attack Hornet was 66.7%.and hive the regular feeding of the cultivars was carried out every week during the Hornet activity to strengthen the hive. Percentage of loss in the hives was 46.7%.and control was the highest loss with 80% of the hive. The loss of hives in Use of trap to control Hornet attack was 60% and control was the highest loss with 80% of the hives at the same time. Were the results the percentage of losses in the hive due to the attack of the hornet was 6.7% in this treatment and the control record was the largest percentage of 80% of the hive.
